OBAMA: I'D HIRE HILL'S HUSBAND

In an interview that hits newsstands tomorrow, the Illinois underdog - asked whether he would hire Bill Clinton for a job in an Obama administration were he to win in 2008 - said, "In a second."

Bill Clinton is an enormously popular figure among Democratic voters, and while his wife's rivals have become less cautious about being critical of him, they have generally stayed positive.

Meanwhile, Sen. Clinton in Ankeny, Iowa, yesterday, accused Obama of flinching from the struggle to provide health care for all Americans and said, "I am not afraid of the Republican attacks" on the subject.

"We've got to put up a candidate who's willing to stand up for it and fight for it," said the former first lady in her most pointed criticism to date of Obama.

---I believe Obama is extremely brave to say that he would hire his rival's husband if he were to be elected president because some might look at that as a down fall, saying he needs his help, where there can just hire Hilary and she has the same views as her husband.
